Springwood Nursery has been within the local community for 38 years, the Nursery is a large detached house which has been converted into a Nursery.  

Springwood is located on Chapel Road just off the main dual carriage way which runs from Warrington to Penketh/Widnes.
The Nursery is set within lovely grounds and has 2 large outdoor play areas, one for preschool children and the other for babies and toddlers. Each playground has a lawn/bark area and a flagged/tarmac mini road/ball zone. These are the perfect base for all the children's physical needs, ranging from the use of bikes, trikes, cars, bats and balls, climbing fames, slides and rockers. In the nicer weather the children and key workers enjoy outdoor picnics on the lawns, story time under the shade from the trees or gazebo, sand and water play, bubble fun, kite flying and much more.

There is ample off road parking facilities both to the front and side of the Nursery. All the grounds are carefully maintained and monitored to keep our gardens pleasing to the eye as well as checking for possible hazards.

All equipment is of the highest standards with a British safety mark and is regularly inspected for any damage or wear and tear and removed from the children's reach if faulty for repair or refuse.
